Show Preview: Olivia Tremor Control @ the Mohawk (8/31)

If you’ve been listening to indie rock for the last two decades or so, you’ve probably heard of Olivia Tremor Control. They’re part of the Elephant 6, the collective that spawned Neutral Milk Hotel and Of Montreal. They’ll even have Music Tapes opening the show, another band associated with NMH. Now, Jeff Mangum probably won’t be there, but you’ll still get to see a bit of history, not to mention some great music.

If you’re not into the band’s sound, you can also catch local acts such as Grape St. or Leatherbag rocking across town as well.
